The thing that bugs me about knee warmers - and I know this is totally shallow - but they make my thigh fat bulge out in just the wrong places!!! One other thing I will do is wear knicker length running tights over my cycling shorts. That gets rid of the multipler elastic problem a bit.

Veronica - if you're still up for a long ride 3.5 in Marin, I can bring my Assos stuff for you to look at first hand.
